#The house from hell

Another violent man now being referred to as a woman by most media.

A trans-identified male in Canada is facing charges of murder after the slaughter and mutilation of a man that left a crime scene so grisly neighbors called it “the house from hell.”

Gabriella Sears, born Dereck Donald Sears, has been in custody since his arrest in 2021. Sears was charged with second degree murder and interference with human remains in the death of Darren Middleton, 49, whose body was found at a home on Sycamore Road in Kelowna, British Columbia.

According to Crown prosecutors, Middleton’s corpse was “beaten and mutilated,” with his penis and testicles being partially or fully removed. Middleton’s partially clothed body was found lying next to a bathtub with the water running, and four weapons were found at the scene, including a retractable utility knife and a baseball bat.

Middleton had died of blunt force trauma to the head, but had stab wounds and defensive injuries. Many of his wounds were inflicted post-mortem. Many of the details surrounding the killing had remained unreleased since 2021 and are being heard for the first time during court testimony which began on Monday, October 16.

Sears and Middleton were known to each other, with the victim’s common-law wife, Brenda Adams, revealing to the court that Sears had been employed to do odd-jobs for Middleton on occasion. Just days before the murder, Sears, who was seen with a full beard in his booking photo, reportedly stated he had begun to identify as a woman named “Gabby.”

Middleton’s partner was the first to discover his mutilated body in a bath tub at Sears’ residence. Middleton had not returned home from work by 9 pm on the evening of June 16, 2021. After several phone calls and attempts to locate him, Adams then decided to visit Sears’ house. She arrived at 1 am and followed the sound of running water to the bathroom, where she found Middleton slain.

Adams noted that the gash in his throat was so deep she could “see right inside.” She also stated that he was not wearing his own clothes, but had been dressed in someone else’s clothing.

She testified that she saw her partner’s penis, cut in half, lying on his abdomen, that a blade could be seen near his crotch, and that she knew right away that he was deceased.

The woman ran from the house, screaming, and called her daughter in shock. As she fled, she told the court that she saw Sears in the middle of the road, dancing with his eyes closed and his arms in the air, as though he was listening to music. Police were alerted and arrived to the scene shortly after.

In 2021, Sears was charged under his given name of Dereck. Local news reports indicate that he adopted the name “Gabriella” after his arrest.

According to submissions made by Crown prosecutor David Grabavac in September, Sears had confessed to the brutal murder, accusing Middleton of sexually assaulting him and claiming the murder was in retaliation to the assault.

However, two separate confessions made by Sears have recently been ruled inadmissible after Sears’ lawyer argued that these incriminating statements were “spontaneous submissions” made before he had legal representation.

The defense also asserted that a strip search and swabbing conducted upon Sears following his arrest was traumatic and insensitive in light of his claim that he had been sexually abused by the victim.

Coverage of the crime has changed dramatically over the years, with initial reports referring to Sears as male and more recent articles describing him as a “woman” and using feminine pronouns for him.

The trial is expected to continue this week, with police and the victim’s common-law wife taking the stand once again.

u said smth like cregan keeping his wife "full, fed, and fucked" once and dipper i think about that daily DAILY

AND DID I LIE ?? i think it was something like fed fucked & bred (idek truthfully) but

right hand on the bible god strike me down if im lying he does. there’s something about eating a hot meal in winterfells dining hall after a long day… and best believe cregan is always asking if you did/reminding you to eat. you can never escape him checking in on you — it’s something that’s inherent to him. built from becoming lord of winterfell so young, always checking with his men, his staff, his allies etc. and that translates to your relationship (you’d be lying if you didn’t enjoy how he assumes the caretaker role)

and…. come on. we know he’s a good fuck. he knows he’s a good fuck. what more do you want me to explain truly? do i need to say how he can’t keep his hands off you? am i supposed to reiterate how well he reads you, and knows when you need him? is that what the hell im supposed to do, people?? am i just supposed to speak about how badly he wants to get you pregnant and how badly you want it too?? literally what do you want from me. i’m done with this mistreatment.

I think alot more people would enjoy the show if they learned to see Rhaenyra and Alicent as Unreliable Narrators, and characters who are supposed to have glaring flaws and weaknesses.

Mandatory preface- There are Issues™️ with season 2 that are its own other ask- but the complaints ive seen about character assassination on both women kind of tells me ppl just wanted to see the two just GirlBossing around, not being tragic characters trapped in their own circumstances.

For Alicent specifically- she just isn't written to be Cersei 2.0, and while it was really interesting to see motherhood from cersei's point of view, its already been done!! I actually prefer seeing Alicent's mercurial clinging to and abandoning motherhood- its interesting!! She was made a mother at what- 15? An age where you truly arent mentally developed enough to raise 3 kids, AND be a child bride, AND be a queen, (AND be a lesbian).

Alicent is interesting to me because she's stunted at 15 years old, she's an adult woman who talks to and sometimes bullies her kids as if they are her peers, and is obsessed with her childhood crush(es). She hasn't built any new relationships* past the ones she was entangled with as a teenager, she's obsessed with both acting out to make SOMEONE see that shes suffering, (she's honestly pretty blatant for someone who prides themselves on being the Temperate Voice of Reason) but also to erase herself and reset to before she had to marry the king, before aemma died.

I think most of her 'bad out of character' decisions are just these two impulses winning out, her trying to force a reset, go back to a time where none of this had happened yet, when things were simpler and she had love and every day wasn't the worst day of her life™️.

She sleeps with cole, the man she thought was pretty at 15 (her last uncomplicated attraction just before it all went wrong and aemma died) -she doesnt seem to like it that much, but she does seem compelled to seek him out, esp when upset- shes obsessed with, and desperate to reconnect with Rhaenyra, her childhood best friend (and first love) and get back to where they were as kids, AND she still treats and asks her father for absolution as if he's still the only authority that matters to her just like she did at 15. Alot of her 'victim complex/bewildered they took it so far' behaviour in the plotting of rhaenyra's usurption reads to me like a teenager in over her head, she talked big game and now its real and shes panicking!! She's tragic BECAUSE she's still a teenager- so stunted shes unable to meaningfully grow up and learn to make healthier choices for herself, or move on and stop trying to grasp at the 'if i could just go back' urge.

As a mother, I think this creates an interesting dynamic as well, and I do like that in the casting even, she seems closer in age to her kids than rhaenyra does to hers. I think the contrast ppl are drawing with Alicent Protecting Her Kids in season1 compared to her giving them up in season two isn't bad writing to me, just massive differences in context. Sure she protected Aemond in driftmark, but we cant ignore that she probably felt humiliated by her husband choosing rhaenyra's side over hers in front of everyone, did it seem like a grown woman fighting for her son?? or a teenager furious with her ex winning one over her again? or both!! both sides twisted together is still interesting! When she protected Aegon from Rhaenys, is stepping in front of her son the king to protect him from the enemies dragon fire not the most romantic daydream of a deserving death a child bride could come up with?? Was it the impulse to protect the son she couldnt decide if she loved or hated, or was it to have the most heroic death possible to escape the reality that she sees coming. And if Rhaenyra hears about how Brave she was in the face of a dragons maw, and cries about it forever and feels sooo bad and regrets it til the day she dies, thats an added bonus. I think Alicent loves her kids, but is teenager selfish about HOW she loves and protects her kids, and is unable to be a mature, consistant, protective mother to them when she also sees them as having ruined her life. I think in season 2 when she 'gives them up' shes relieved, and once again following the compulsion of 'if i reset to when Rhaenyra was heir, i had no sons, and i wasn't married or queen, everything will be better'. I think theres complexity to it, i think she does love her sons and feels insane about it, but I think Alicent has been trying to Go Back in more and more Intense ways ever since she got married, and we might be giving her sanity more credit than it deserves when it comes to the need to wipe the board clean and go back to being 15.

hey anon are you trying to get married to me or what

yes house md as a show is outlandish and insane. house is literally a truman show of his own show. background characters are made out of cardboard, the walls are glass, he is just allowed to bully patients and his coworkers for funzies. but like there is also a deeply realistic element to house as a character. his actions are in line with his life, his backstory, and with his predicament. his chronic pain which lead to an opioid addiction, his childhood trauma, his trust issues that have definitely been shattered throughout his life leading to his cynicism, his refusal to seek mental support. of course the one constant and true trusting relationship in his life will also be codependent. this all makes sense. but this is also a show where house gets shot, gets recruited by the CIA for an episode, goes to jail multiple times. but it’s also a story about a deeply damaged man making the best of what he has and also learning to accept love? oh yeah and this is also a sherlock adaptation.
